New album"
I’ve waited over 20 years for an album like this from Carlos and it’s worth the wait. Buika pours her heart out in this collaboration , there’s a lot of pain and suffering in her lyrics and the fact that she’s singing mostly in Spanish may explain the reluctance that some Santana fans may have about the meaning or message of the songs . The fact is that she’s mostly known as a flamenco and jazz singer and this is the first time she has sung with a rock band and even though she is singing african songs, in my opinion she sounds ballsier than most of the male singers that have song for Santana which may explain his use of the wah wah pedal that makes his guitar sound angrier, funkier and dirtier and less clicheish. His guitar playing has never sounded better since Milagro and the they recorded 49 songs in 10 days?! Imagine what the other songs would sound like . Blue skies sounds jazzier with Laura Emvula?! Yet the last half of the song rocks more like a heavy metal song ; what’s African about this song?! Where did the jazz originate? From the blues which gave birth to gospel and what about jingo , everybody’s everything, soul sacrifice ,savor , oye como va , the healer ?! Like Carlos says we play African music 😎
